Punter

  1. Donnie Jones

Now on to the most exciting position in all of football—the punter!

It just so happens that the Eagles have only one punter on their roster and his name is Donnie Jones. Jones is 36 years old, but he remains one of the more reliable punters in the NFL with his kicking power and pinpoint precision. It’s fair to wonder how much longer Jones will continue to play at a high level, but he hasn’t shown any significant signs of regression. If it’s not broken, why fix it?

I should add, however, that the Eagles did sign Ryan Quigley (which, ironically, just so happens to be my name) to the roster earlier this offseason. Quigley was released soon after being signed, but he could be an option going forward if Jones suffers an injury that could keep him off the field for a significant amount of time.
